Meghan:
That is what I thought Dave B...... I knew it got mixed up.

Dave B:
I second the request for MANAMANA!!!

Thu. 9/29/11 6:33am
Simon:
Just picking up on the newswires that there are heightened tensions in the middle east today. Apparently down to some crazy American shock jock creating significant offence by misplacing the capital of Dubai. Live on air. Would you believe some people?

Thu. 9/29/11 6:35am
Meghan:
HA!..... it doesn't have to be a capital! it can be any town too!

social directeur pierre will make a plan - some time on the weekend? i hit town tonite at about midnite, by Place d'Italie, si tu es près de lui buvons de la bière?

Thu. 9/29/11 8:01am
fred:
fred, that goes without saying
pierre, you have my email, so let me know about the plan. Some advance notice would be nice, I have a hectic weekend planned, and no cell phone, so I won't have access to email all that often

Elwyn:
@Meghan: Has the world lost respect for Australians ever since our previous government chose to participate in Gulf War 2? I'm hoping I'm not American enough to become a political prisoner...

Thu. 9/29/11 8:16am
fred von helsing:
hey the more, the merrier! maybe there's a place where you can sit in the sun and drink liter mugs of belgian beer? (fast track to destruction :)

Thu. 9/29/11 8:26am
pierre:
@ Cheri Pi : it would be great to have all of you here !

@ fred : i'm not a beer places specialist (althougth i enjoy it), i know near this area there must be places with terasse and good beer, a start at the Bouillon Belge, and then moving (or not) to other places.

Russell Crowe was at his best when he guest starred as Shirty the Slightly Aggressive Bear in "The Late Show" (a skit show)

oh, and there was a show called the games ( i think) about the preparation for the sydney olympics. that was hilarious.

luh3417:
the games was great but again a New Zealander Fred Dag aka John Clarke in fact was largely responsible for it; but if we want to blame a film that got Australia into Ahghanistan then maybe Gallipoli?
